I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

I actually consume kiwis without peeling them, because I find it much more tasteful.

My husband cringes every time I do it.

If I find a good bell pepper, I will eat it whole like an apple.

When I get a beverage/food garnished with an herb like a sprig of mint or rosemary, I like to nibble on them. My friends and girlfriend sort of lost their minds when I took a bit out of a cinnamon stick from a cocktail.

Potato chips with Ketchup. No shame, no regrets.

Peanut butter + mayo + pickles on bread.

It's apparently a Depression era recipe, but I crave it once every two months or so

Haven't eaten it since I was 16 or so, but I loved toast (white bread) with ketchup and nutella (yes, spread on the same side, not like one half ketchup and the other half nutella)

Edit because it came to my mind: My girlfriend finds it really weird that I like to spread mayonnaise on my meat-bread (like proper bread with salami or other sliced meat sitting on top of mayonnaise)

I enjoy ginger beer and will try to cut it into random other alcoholic beverages like red wine.

Peanut butter and jelly (aka jam) with white sandwich bread with a generous amount of Doritos or cheez-its in it. One of my favorite meals!

Toasted sandwich bread with tomato slices, salt, and mayo. I could die just thinking about them. Add corn on the cob as a side.

A slice of sandwich bread with mustard, American cheese, and onion. Stick in the broiler to melt thecl cheese and brown the bread, and serve. RIP grandma.

I've definitely heard of tomato sandwiches before, and I'd go as far as to say I'd love to try one with a perfectly ripe and juicy tomato. I think I've heard of the bread, cheese, and onion combo before? Either 1:1 or something similar? Ploughman's lunch sorta thing, I think.

But I've never heard of the PB&J with Cheez-Its before. I need to hear the scoop and what the appeal is. I think I could see myself doing it with a less sugary PB and a more savory or spicy jam 👀?

Bombay Bad Boy Pot Noodle for breakfast when staying in a hotel.

Also being English and not liking English breakfasts.

chips + jam

specifically, kettle chips (plain salted or unsalted) with a nice strawberry or blackberry jam to dip them in...

where it really gets controversial is that I like to do this with the bonne maman jams 🙈

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I could imagine the sweet and salty goes well together. I like when a charcuterie has a nice jam and brie. A cracker or piece of bread with brie, prosciutto, and jam, I could eat so many of those.

[–] gaydarless 2 points 2 years ago

exactly! sweet and salty plus CRUNCHY (the best texture). it's heavenly.

also: hard yes to baguette with brie, prosciutto, and jam. i also love using an apple slice as the base for those toppings.

I like pineapple on pizza, but I think there's only one specific sort of pizza where it's actually good. You need a good barbeque sauce base, jalapenos, and some sort of meat (I prefer chicken and bacon). The usual ham, pineapple and tomato sauce version can get in the sea.

Cheez-its dipped in melted chocolate

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

turns out you can eat citrus fruits peel and all

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Especially cumquats

Eating a lot of foods with Carolina Reaper or Ghost Pepper. I have carolina reaper infused sauce, salt shaker, chunky shaker, and whole pods and I would mix them with steak, pork chop, ramen, and so forth. I just like how it enhance the taste in different ways, not for everyone though.

@[email protected] what kind of bagels are we talking here? Pesto on a toasted everything sounds amazing.

We make chips out of Plantago major with a little oil, salt, garlic, and pepper. I once got a stern talking to about eating the fruit from a 'Kousa' dogwood from the owner of the landscaping company I was working for. In my defense, they were shared with the owner of the tree, who had never sprayed any -cides there.

Greek yogurt and natural peanut for breakfast. Not really that odd in my opinion but the face of the people I tell that too say otherwise.

In a similar vein, muffaletta as a bagel topping.

Make a bowl of chili, make a peanut butter sandwich, drop the peanut butter sandwich in the bowl of chill, eat it. I think this is a midwestern thing and everybody else thinks I'm nuts until they try it.
